Removing a radiator

you can close the opening with either a nipple and cap or if Wallies deem it safe with a common solid pipe plug. Call a professional for help. I am sure they will be right over.

I removed a radiator during the summer. I am not putting it back, but now when the heat goes on I have steam escaping from the pipe. It seems the vavle does not close all the way. Is there a cap or cover I can put on the end where the radiator used to connect? Where do I get them, no one at the home stores seems to know.
